General Precautions
1. Individuals with weak or cold constitutions: As this tea has cooling properties, it should be consumed cautiously by those prone to coldness, such as individuals with "Yang deficiency" in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). These individuals might experience worsening symptoms like fatigue, digestive issues, or a feeling of coldness.
2. Hypertension or heart disease: Since liquorice root can raise blood pressure in high doses, individuals with hypertension or heart disease should monitor their intake or avoid long-term consumption of this tea.
3. Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare provider before using this tea. Some ingredients, such as liquorice, may have hormonal effects or pose risks during pregnancy when consumed in excess.
4. Allergies: The tea should be avoided by individuals with known allergies to honeysuckle or any other ingredients.
5. Long-term use: This tea should be consumed in moderation and avoid prolonged consumption without consulting a healthcare provider. TCM herbs can have cumulative effects, and long-term use may not be necessary for short-term conditions like colds or fevers.
While Honeysuckle Flower Tea is generally considered safe for most people, there are precautionary measures that should be observed based on the individual body constitutions.
